Is Statistical evidence the same as truth?
No.
Good statistical evidence is very clear about how likely it is to be 'correct'. Data can be delivered with (say) a 95% confidence, or a 99% confidence. In general, the bigger the sample you use, the more likely the answer is to be 'correct'.
There is always a small chance that it will not be 'correct'.
If your sample is 100% of the population, you can say with 100% confidence that you are presenting the truth. But the whole point of statistics is to avoid the cost of a 100% sample, and to be able to infer what the population would answer without needing to ask all of them. The accuracy of this inference depends on: the sample size, the number of questions asked, the actual phrasing of those questions (are they negative, positive, or neutral?), the reason for the survey in the first place, and the interpretation of the results. Statistics are easily manipulated, especially if the sample size is small, there are few real choices offered, and there is no option for "Comments" or "Other". The old saying "You can prove anything by statistics" is correct.
Out of every 100 babies born in the world between 4 and 5 are born in North America
Based on the math below:
Based on the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs Population Division which can be accessed at:
http://www.un.org/esa/population/publications/sixbillion/sixbillion.htm
In 1999 when the world hit 6 billion:
U.S. had 276.2 million
Canada had 30.9 million
Mexico had 97.4 million
Total of North America would be 404.5 million
So, out of every 100 people in the world, between 6 and 7 live in North America (6.71%)
However, the question you are asking has less to do with population, and more to do with birth rates. Using the source:
"birthrate." Encyclopedia of Public Health. The Gale Group, Inc, 2002. Answers.com 07 Jul. 2008. http://www.answers.com/topic/birth-rate
The world birthrate in 2000 was approximately 24 per 1,000 or
U.S. was approximately 14 per 1,000
Canada was approximately 11 per 1,000
Mexico we will give 22 per 1,000 (Latin America average)
So based on population at 1999 of 6 billion given above, each year 144 million people are born in the world.
US would have 3.86 million
Canada 340 thousand
Mexico 2.14 million
Total North America = 6.34 million
The percent of total world births would be 4.4 percent or, to answer your question:
Out of every 100 babies born in the world between 4 and 5 are born in North America

What are the characteristics of statistics?
Characteristics of Statistics
Some of its important characteristics are given below:
What is population distribution?
It is like where people are distributed in a country. Some examples include clustered distribution, and that is when a big cluster of people live in a place of a country. Another one is linear, where people live on the border line of a country, mostly beside a river or lake. The last is scattered, where people are all over the place because there is limeted resources.

The given statement is true.
Reason: High multicollinearity can make it difficult to determine the individual significance of predictors in a model.
Are questionnaires and surveys the same?
A questionaire is a type of survey, but not all surveys are questionaires
The questionnaire might be a component of the overall survey. For example, a survey might include everything from the initial design, pilot study, randomization & selection, data collection and final analysis. The questionnaire would be the data collection component of that overall process.
What are the latest morbidity rate in the Philippines?
I do not have real-time data on morbidity rates in the Philippines. It's best to refer to official sources such as the Department of Health in the Philippines for the most up-to-date information on morbidity rates in the country.
What are the major differences between practical significance and statistical significance?
This is a very good and interesting question. As soon as you become interested in practical significance, you make your decision subjective. This is not bad by any means. It means that you are free to determine whether or not an outcome is important to study, even if you have not reached the classic "p < .05". Statistics tells you something about the likelihood that what you got was produced by chance alone. But in situations that deal for example with child safety, you aren't going to continue (or terminate) a process based on results that come in at "p = .062". In a statistics examination and with a presumed 5% confidence, p = .062 is not a strong enough result to "reject the null hypothesis". But what could that possibly mean if you are looking at factors affecting child safety?
I think the bottom line is this. If you are engaged in any kind of academic study and neither the study nor the results will bring harm to anyone, then let the statistics guide your research decisions. If there is the potential that harm will come to one or more individuals as a result of the study or its outcomes, then you need to re-evaluate the purpose of the study and consider the safety and well-being of the people involved.

What is the rate in which work is done?
Work rate is a measure of how quickly work is being completed, typically expressed in units of work per unit of time (e.g. tasks per hour). It indicates the efficiency or speed at which a task or project is being accomplished. A higher work rate implies a faster completion time, while a lower work rate indicates a slower pace.
Why is the people of the world so blind to what is right?
PEER PRESSURE AND AN UNSEEN INFLUENCE.
Humans are animals too just like lions and apes, cats and dogs; right and wrong doesn't really come into the wild animal life does it? Right and wrong is a human based concept, the universe already knows right and wrong; it has its rules BUT we have ours. Humans made themselves a 'civilized society' which means the wild and animal in us has been pretty much walked over and we are all supposed to forget that we have anger and hate and procreational desires and need as an animal. However humans are also very hypocritical so right and wrong is always a very fine line, ie is it right to kill someone to help them?
Well no we don't have euthanasia yet, because killing is seen as wrong and bad, even though you'd be helping the person stop suffering.
YET we do euthanize animals.
Why? Either we are more compassionate to their needs or we value them less.
is it really "right" and justified to put a young mother to death
or life in prison
because she suffered post natal depression and killed her baby?
i say no, because she had an illness, she needs medication and help,
shes got enough to deal with having just killed her own baby and living with that the rest of her life, and she will never do it again as long as shes on the medication.
Either way there is hypocrasy in every thing humans do. Its why humans have many deviances, because the animal in us is being ignored, denied and pushed away.
As a human in civilized society only you can really decide for yourself what is right and wrong within the boundaries of living this life we do, and most of us do know right and wrong and hopefully most of us live the civilized society way and don't hurt other people, animals help those in need etc. Society is very fickle and does not like changes or differences, even though that itself is wrong. again hypocrasy.
and society will never have the same views on anything than an individual, so your ideas of right and wrong may differ from societys ideas on them, and from other individual peoples ideas of them
the definition of what is right and wrong in society's eyes, is itself wrong and unjust,
good people do bad things and bad people can do good things
its a balance, we all have good and bad right and wrong in us
we just have to find the balance and hope that it stays balanced
From a Christian viewpoint Humans are unique in that we have been given the "breath of life." We were created in the image of God. When given a choice to follow God or follow our own desires, Adam chose "my way." That's now how we were designed, but that's what Adam bequeathed to every single one of us: spiritual death. The dead cannot see, so the spiritually dead cannot see the light of truth.
